What you say sounds very logical, but we've been working on the
compassion issue for more than 22 years, and have done extensive studying of
what issues bring about the greatest change, and health amounts to only a
very small percentage. Many other organizations have come to the same
conclusion. The only thing that seems to bring about lasting change is the
compassion issue. Until most people have had their emotions shocked by
seeing the horror of what happens to the animals, they rarely change their
lifestyle.

We have also encountered a lot of cruelty on so called family and
free-range farms, and there really isn't any such thing as humane slaughter.

And on the health issue, free-range or not, there appears to be no
difference in the effect of animal flesh and bodily secretions on chronic
diseases. The only way to prevent them is to go on a healthful, unprocessed,
plant food vegan diet.

Your comments in the one article about if a person cannot give up meat
for of taste reasons to use soy products is the only step that can truly
help a person's health, providing they also eat lots of fresh fruit and
veggies.
